Byron had no experience coaxing children. Whenever Estie was angry with him in the past, it was Mrs. Zora whom he had asked to coax her.

Seeing his daughter crying in front of Rosalie now, a trace of panic flashed through Byron's heart. In the end, with a calm expression, he dully ordered, "Don't cry."

He had thought that this sentence was void of emotion.

In Estie's ear, however, it sounded fierce.

The moment he said that, Estie sobbed harder. Her tears practically rolled down in a stream.
